After the break, An Feng ran with Wang Le as the front car, let him drive the back, teach skills through the wireless walkie-talkie, and after he became proficient, he would run for another twenty laps, and he would be able to cope with this track the day after tomorrow. Of course, it's only in the realm of amateur driving, and it's still far from racing.

There will be three groups of races at the circuit, the first two groups will be mainly leisure, more practice and entertainment, and the speed will not be too fast. The last group is interesting, the first place is one million dollars, the second place is 600,000 yuan, and the 300,000 yuan, although they all have to be donated, but in the name of the driver.

To put it another way, donations in their names can be used to deduct personal taxable income.

On the afternoon before the race, the circuit is dedicated to practice for drivers who wish to participate in charity races. An Feng also participated, but to wear professional racing clothes, accept the racing safety knowledge assessment, and dare to participate in the senior group competition, you must be familiar with the rules and have technical guarantees.

Match day morning.

Located at the intersection of SLO and Santa Barbara counties, Amoeba International Speedway has been bustling with activity since yesterday, with stylish sports cars and rare cars brought in by special trailers. Everyone had the same purpose - to participate in the opening ceremony celebration and the competition.

There is also a local press work vehicle, this luxury racing track covering more than 2,000 acres, very mysterious, built in a low-key manner, without any government sponsorship, is a private act, and its establishment has no clear goal, initially considered for private use.

These mysteries are enough to arouse people's curiosity.

It even caught the attention of the neighboring Santa Maria City Government, and although they are in Santa Barbara County and the speedway is in SLO County, it is clear that the speedway is also close to them, and there will be a few events or something in the future. This is important for both the tourism economy and the city's popularity.

There are no restrictions on visitors to the Amoeba Circuit today, you only need to pick up a free e-ticket on the website or pick it up at the on-site ticket office to enter. Ten days ago, the charity tournament was advertised, and more than 30,000 tickets have been distributed so far, and everyone is very interested in the event.

In order to maintain law and order, security guards wearing shields and emblems were also seen at the scene.

Today happens to be Sunday. The weather is sunny, the temperature is suitable, and all the nearby residents who have nothing to do come to take a look, anyway, the tickets are free, and you can also enjoy a sports car feast, which is cheap and not white. When An Feng arrived, he saw a scene of crowds, which was unexpected.

Stop by the pit lane and meet up with a few friends.

Wang Le looked up at the spectator seats on the opposite side of the track. He said: "There are so many people, I thought there was only a group of drivers and wives watching the race." ”

"You're underestimating the allure of racing." An Feng said proudly.

As he spoke, a white and blue Maserati MC12 drove up, and when he got out of the car, he was greeted by a casually dressed Roger and a beautifully dressed Miranda.

An Feng went to greet him: "Hey! ”

Roger clashed his fists with them one by one, took off his sunglasses, and looked at the beauties around him: "It seems that the ladies are not to be outdone!" ”

In addition to eye-catching sports cars, there are also a group of wives who can steal the limelight from sports cars.

The ladies in costume are equally powerful, and each competes with each other. The short skirt and high heels stood next to the sports car, which was more eye-catching than some of the display models invited to the scene. It's also more temperamental. None of the ladies were planning to drive, and Joanna didn't like to wear a helmet because she wanted to be beautiful.

More and more friends came later, and all kinds of rare sports cars were also on the field, and three LaFerrari appeared in one go, and two Lamborghini Ravington came. Let An Feng's desire to lead alone be frustrated. Then there are a lot of supercar modified cars with a lot of value, which are extremely attractive.

Hundreds of supercars fill the grid, and the roar of engines echoes across the field.

There are six large LCD screens opposite the auditorium, and the staff is broadcasting the captured footage to the top, so that the audience can see the whole game more clearly. Capture the details of the chase while racing. This is the opening ceremony of the operation of the circuit, and it is also a practical test of the operation.

So far, it's all going on in an orderly manner.

As the start signal fell, a Mercedes-Benz SLS-AMG safety car in front of the car took the lead, and all sports cars started up to keep up with the safety car. After the SLS has been driving at a constant speed for a while, it gradually increases its speed, and after taking the lead for one lap, the safety car is withdrawn and the supercars play their own roles.

Hundreds of sports cars are just hot spots, due to the number of vehicles, the level of the drivers, overtaking is not allowed on the track, so it is to keep the distance after three laps, after pulling up the atmosphere of the scene, the sports cars return to the pits. Next, the different groups competed.

The first two groups were not championship battles, and everyone did not come with a competitive mentality, but just to compete with friends on the track and discuss technology with each other. Only the last group of professional riders will be mixed in, and it will be duel out.

In the expectations of the audience, the first group of cars is ready, a total of sixteen cars, all of which are V8 engines or above, accelerating to 100 kilometers in 4 seconds, and the top speed is over 300, Wang Le's Porsche is also among them, and the previous lap results are qualifying, this guy is in eighth, and the whole is okay.

A simple race only needs to run five laps, according to the actual performance of the scene, an average lap takes more than two minutes, and the whole race takes about 12 minutes to complete, although it is not intense, but there are also uses the performance of sports cars to stage straight overtaking, corner chase and other dramas, the atmosphere is good.

After the first group finishes, it will eliminate the bottom eight and then let the top eight play a slightly higher final, and the first will participate in the charity race. Wang Le is also on the list of finals, and he has gained a lot from training in the past two days, and when he got off the bus, he held his head high, as if he regarded the eighth as the champion.

Looking at Wang Le, who hugged Lisa and cheered in celebration, everyone laughed.

The rules of the second group are similar, except that most of the cars are V12, with larger displacement and faster speed, and they also run five laps, knocking out the bottom eight, and the rest will advance to the finals. Roger's MC12 was in this group, and he wanted to go to the first group, but everyone thought that road racing was a bully, so he had to participate in the second group.

In the second group, famous cars such as Bugatti Veil, Koenigsegg and Pagani appeared, and the track version of the MC12 dominated the GT event, although it was not very fast, but it was very performant. Races are played at a faster pace, with an average completion time of five seconds faster than the previous set. There are also laps that take less than 2 minutes.

After the two groups of relatively mild preliminary rounds, it was An Feng's turn to be this group.

They only have qualifying, with the fastest lap times deciding the starting position. An Feng wants to synthesize the best P1, Duke intends to lie to the end, and 599XX debuts; Howard driving F12; Then there is the Ferrari LaFerrari, two Porsche 918s. Two Lamborghini LP740-SV (unreleased, guess).

Although the previous two groups of supercar duels were lively, they were not exciting enough, and the two games failed to make the audience burst into enthusiasm, and the supercar owners couldn't let go, and the technology was not enough. After the start of qualifying in the senior class, the crowd cheered with a good start and a roar that lasted at more than 200 at the corner.

Here's the big thing!

An Feng drove the P1 to full strength, and from the start to the first corner, the speed of the sports car has exceeded 300 per hour. The first is a high-speed corner, which is lowered one gear and passes steadily at a speed of about 240, followed by a straight line, followed by a few hairpin corners, and the speed is maintained above 210.

He has run hundreds of times in the past ten days, and he is extremely familiar with the road conditions.

Looking at the others, the skills are obviously higher than the previous two groups, and the racing skills are also skillful. With lap times of 1 minute and 50 seconds each, Duke was very impressive this time. A good score of 1 minute and 38 seconds in a single lap, and when An Feng felt that he played perfectly, it also took 1 minute and 40 seconds.

Compared to the mild competition of the previous group, the best time directly opened up the gap of 20 seconds.

As it was two days ago, all of them had a 1 minute and 50 second best, with Duke's 599XX being the strongest. Won the first place in the start, followed by Howard, the modified F12 he drove could actually soar to 350, and achieved a slightly faster speed than An Feng ranked second, and An Feng was third.

The results from then on are also very good. 1 minute and 42 seconds are available.

After qualifying, the morning race also ended, and the finals were not held until the afternoon, and now this free time is turned into free practice, or the stunt drivers invited by the organizers to perform motorcycle and car acrobatics. In addition, the automobile museum is also open for everyone to enter and visit An Feng's collection.

An Feng and seven other riders got together to discuss the afternoon race.

Apparently their group was the one that got the most attention, and there were TV interviews when discussing cornering and braking techniques. Duke, the most eye-catching Ferrari owner, proudly spoke about his racing experience and then publicized the rules of the racetrack's charity races.

An Feng gave him a thumbs up, this guy is interesting enough.

Afternoon.

The competition in the senior category started with great anticipation. Considering the tyres and fuel capacity, the race was 25 laps and over 140 kilometres, and according to the slowest lap time, the race took about 45 minutes, and was filmed by TV and the stadium officials.

After An Feng was kissed by Joanna, he got in the car to prepare.

There were a total of eight cars, and An Feng was in third place, waiting for the green signal light to turn on, and then stepped on the accelerator to sprint.

Due to the uneven performance of the race cars and the fact that there were many overtaking situations on the straights, An Feng passed Duke just before the first high-speed corner, but he snatched it back in the back few hairpin corners. The track is not so naïve as who accelerates faster, it is the performance and the driver who will test it.

After the first lap of the race, the ranking did not change much, the top three are still 599XX, F12 and P1, they have been running on this track no less than 100 times in the past few days, each is handy, the competition for the position is fierce, the current first place to maintain the lead, there is no opponent for the time being, and the faster and faster they run. There is a lot of competition for second and third place, and the fourth and fifth places are often replaced.

Anfeng's P1 and F12 are constantly competing for the second position, and the camera lens is chasing them.

Howard's F12 uses a racing kit, and when it brakes at high speeds, the brake discs turn like red-hot pieces of iron, turning a dazzling orange red.

Spectators cheered on the frequent overtaking, and the wives who watched became cheerleaders, even though many of the ladies didn't know the drivers on the field.

An Feng didn't know that the outside world was so lively, he was immersed in the car.

After the fourth lap, he had to change his strategy and continue like this, always second and third. As I drive, my mind is quickly sorting out the experience of each corner, and the track has eighteen corners, most of which are high-speed corners, and there are also low-speed corners that require a sudden reduction in speed. But in both corners, the drivers can handle it well.

The most difficult ones are a few hairpin bends, and a high-speed bend.

In response to successive hairpin corners, An Feng kept high speed behind the F12 and used the acceleration of the sports car to overtake the inside as he cut from the outside to the center of the corner - the result was that he reached the tangent of the corner faster, and although he was slower, he would steal the best line of the F12.

Sometimes, dominating an opponent's line is also a strategy for overtaking.

After overtaking, in order to prevent Howard from playing like this, Anfeng gave up the principle of "outside and outside" and adopted the "outside and outside" cornering method, from a macro point of view, it is also a kind of "outside and outside", but it will go deeper into the inside of the corner, and then tangent to the geometric bend in an almost straight way.

To put it simply, An Feng blocked the car behind and did not let it pass.

An Feng glanced in the rearview mirror and was a little proud to see that the F12 could not overtake. His wonderful performance was also enjoyed by all the audience on the big screen.

After a few more performances on the straights and high-speed corners, we faced the second difficulty.

There is a high-speed corner ahead, and if it is alone, it is easy to pass, but until the high-speed corner is reached, the speed of the car is maintained at about 260, and high-speed cornering is impossible, and when you step on the brakes to slow down the corner, you have to downshift, and downshifting will make the engine rev drop.

Once the revs are slow, the exit speed will be slow, and the acceleration will feel like the power of the engine is not the key.

Therefore, Anfeng adopted a new cornering strategy - left-foot braking.

As we all know, when learning to drive or driving in driving school, the instructor emphasizes that you must control the accelerator and brake with your right foot, and you can't use your left foot to step on the brake.

But in racing, the left foot brake is a must-have for the driver.

Like this high-speed bend faced by An Feng, he doesn't want to downshift, and he can't turn at high speed, so he has to step on the brake with his left foot and hold the accelerator with his right foot at the most appropriate time, the braking process is very short, and the racing speed slows down, but the engine speed is maintained, and when he comes out of the corner, he can still maintain a high speed!

The left foot brake is very particular about timing and power, and it requires the racer to practice hard, and it is difficult for ordinary people to change the inherent thinking of the right foot brake, so it is not good to learn. An Feng is against the sky, and he uses it skillfully.

By lap six, he had been able to sit in second place, and instead bit the ass of 599XX in front of him, threatening Duke's first spot.

The 599XX is a track car, lightweight and professional, born only for the track, and it is not easy to surpass it, but the P1 is equipped with the latest aerodynamic technology, with excellent straight-line acceleration, coupled with a large number of left-foot braking strategies when passing high-speed corners, each lap can be at least 0.5 seconds faster.

20 laps, at least ten seconds faster, what does ten seconds mean?

With an average speed of 205 kilometers per hour and at least 560 meters more in ten seconds, the difference is very obvious on the track. Therefore, An Feng used the technique of pressing step by step and accumulating a lot to deal with 599XX. Finally, on lap 24, he overtook the car and led the way to the final lap.

In the final lap time, the 599XX is 1:39.9 and the P1 is 1:39.2.

There was only a slight difference, but the gap was a tragedy, and the audience saw that it was McLaren P1 who crossed the finish line first, and it won the championship. (To be continued......)
